CRJ-200 Training Manual

[melbourneflyer]

Hello everyone! Just got the call for a May 24th training class with PSA and wanted to get a jump on studing before I go. Does anyone know how I can get a training manual on the CRJ-200 or any related type study books for that aircraft? Also any books on the FMS system for that aircraft? Any info or advice would be much appreciated on how or where to get some books.
Thanks, melbourneflyer

They will tell you and teach you all you need to know when you get to class. Enjoy your time off....it'll get pretty busy once you get to class.

Good luck...

Mike has the right idea. Wait till you get to training. The way PSA flies their CRJ may be worlds different then the gouge you may get your hands on so I'd be patient and just wait till you get the company approved training manuals. Enjoy the ride.

melbourneflyer,

I'd recommend that you wait until class (just like everyone else said) unless you have an actual copy from PSA, current revision and all on the aircraft you'll be flying. The same equip can vary so much in terms of how it's operated between companies that you don't want to waste brainpower on something you'll need to re-learn again once you're in groundschool. So, only if you can get a hold of the real deal would I recommend that you study ahead of class...

In the mean time there's other good reading that could prep you for turbine classes in general such as "The turbine pilot's flight manual" by Brown and Holt or another favorite of mine; "Everything explained for the professional pilot" by Richie Lengel.

Otherwise, they'll teach you everything you'll need to know in class, so don't stress about it if you don't get a jump now - just enjoy the time off while you still have some of it!

I would be cautious trying to memorize any set of limitations from a source other than the airline your going too. Those limitations could be outdated, or the air carrier may have a more limiting set of limitations.
